My goal on this page is to showcase my own writing ability as it pertains to the mentality of combat and the lives of fighters outside the ring. Here, you’ll find snippets of the memoir which I am currently writing, including stories about my own exploits in the ring and my lengthy journey towards fulfillment and self-actualization. Along with this, I’ll be publishing short stories I have written that deal with a variety of topics, including mental illness, fathers and sons, addiction, redemption, and obviously, fighting. They say to write what you know, and I know that I’m thoroughly acquainted with the above topics.
It’s worth noting that a lot of what I plan on putting out here will deal with the darker side of human nature and other uncomfortable topics that are all firmly rooted in the real. I typically don’t bother with any escapist literature (although that definitely has its place) or anything that is removed from reality. I place far greater value on works that focus on answering life’s greater questions, as grandiose as that may sound. I don’t pretend to have the answers, and neither do the characters that I’ll write about.
This is primarily a platform for realistic fiction/ creative non-fiction works.
